I thought you said there wasn't any damage done in the crash?
I did.
Then how can it be chipped?
Ted? Captain?
Yes, Harry.
We know how this craft got here. Where it's been.
So do we. And it seems to have picked up something on it's travels.
No. They don't represent a message. They aren't decorative at all. They have another purpose entirely.
What?
To conceal a small break in the surface of the sphere.
A break for what?
So how do we get it open?
Ted seems to have some ideas.
Man is man, all he knows is man, and all he can think of is what he knows. The anthropomorphic problem. Good, Norman.
The what?
So? What's the problem?
It's nonsense. There's enough difference between our own species to prove that.
Or it could contain some great benefit to us, some astonishing new idea or technology to help mankind.
It could. But the odds of it being any use to us are against it.
You don't know that.
Let's say whoever made this thing is a thousand years ahead of us, just like we are to, say, medieval Europe. Suppose you went back to medieval Europe with a TV set. There wouldn't be any place to plug it in.
Just tell me worst case. Worst case of what we might find?
Gimme a report, I want
Ladies and Gentlemen...
Who is that? Where's that coming from?
Please watch your closest monitor...
It's a single sequence repeated over and over.
We're all very proud of you, Harry, but what the hell is it?
... spiralling out of the center, you see: "G" is one, "B" is two, "H" is three, and so on... when I got the message.
What's the message?
I have to tell you. It's strange.
How do you mean, strange?
Ignorant. The thing's ignorant.
It's not ignorant.
Are you enjoying yourself, Harry, because I don't know what the hell you're doing.
He understands me fine.
Not now, Beth. Please. I want to know who we're talking to before we start talking. Where's Edmunds?
She's not gonna know, sir.
What?
He's saying, "Take me to your leader." He wants to know who's in charge.
I'm in charge.
With an "o". Harold with an "o".
What you want me to retype it?
Edmunds? Get in here. I want to know exactly how this is being transmitted.
She's not gonna know.
She wired this system.
If the technology of that sphere is advanced enough the way it functions is gonna appear to us like magic.
Can you open that panel?
Working on it now, sir.
It's not sucking, sir.
Thank you, I can see that. Try something else.
We don't have anything else to try, Sir.
Well, shit find something, do something... make something up
What caused it?
Nothing. I don't know. Everything was normal. No changes at all.
Get him out of there. I thought I told you people
Harry? Can you copy?
Subs are still at surface, sir.
Send them, damn it! I know, but I'm not gonna be held responsible
I'm getting no sub reading, sir.
They're coming.
Any sign of Harry?
Nothing, sir.
Fuck him. What? Hello?
Nothing, sir.
What the hell is going on here?
Yes, sir.
Well, where the fuck is he?
In the ship, sir.
Sir, if the subs haven't left by now...
They've left, keep watching!
Sir! Sir, the door it's opening.
Norman, get out of there now! Norman?
If the subs aren't here yet, sir
Edmunds, get in here. I need you for this.
In a minute, sir.
Thank you, Colonel.
Captain.
Captain. Right, forgive me.
Well, thanks for the opportuninty here my wife appreciates it.
Don't thank me, Dr. Johnson. You weren't my choice. The Pentagon made me take you.
The Pentagon? I didn't know I had friends in Washington.
Come with me. The team's already waiting.
What team?
What have you been told so far?
The usual. Plane crash. Survivers unknown. Routine stuff really.
Anything else?
Nothing else.
You talk to any reporters? Any press?
Press? No, I haven't.
Good. Security's been our biggest worry. Now that you're here we can shut this thing down tight.
From what? What's with all the security?
Well, we don't have all the facts yet.
We're moving fast considering the storm.
Storm? What storm?
A cyclone's on it's way in. I thought they would have told you on the phone.
They didn't tell me anything.
How deep is he?
A thousand feet.
A thousand? An airplane crashes into a thousand feet of water I don't want to sound pessimistic here, but I assume there are no survivors.
